Suspension repair advise
Guys,
The dealer just told me my front right suspension arm is shot, I need to replace it, but the dealer wants $1500 for it... I found this kit
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-W25...sories&vxp=mtr
Any experience?, should I just buy the suspension arm alone?, or other parts are required?

Do a google seach on that companys' products and you'll see some wildy mixed reviews.
They seems almost too good to be true.
With the front suspension, theres an upper arm and a lower arm.
A genuine Upper arm is around $250 while the lower arm (which also includes a new main lower ball joint and other bushes) is around $580.
How old's the ML? Mine has a shot Airmatic strut which is probably flying over the Pacific ocean right now, but it won't be being installed by a dealer.

Hey, this post is a few months old but I've bought that brand before and it's OK. But only last 6 months. This is my first hand experience with that company. Just get oem parts, Lemforder but I don't like this brand at all. It gets the job done but expect it to break down later. Mbzspealist is a good site I always go to. Reasonable price and all oem. Hope this helps, I know it's more $$$ but doing the job twice is $$$$$$$.
